1995 | Jaguar XJS 4.0

• 26,000 miles from new

• Originally supplied to Jaguar’s company vehicles department

• Jaguar Classic navigation and audio system

• Lattice-style wheels and quad-headlamp conversion

The Jaguar XJS enjoyed a long production run, but the later cars have become particularly coveted thanks to their increased levels of performance, comfort and quality. This 1995 Convertible carries with it the additional appeal of having covered just over 26,000 miles from new.

It was delivered on 15 May 1995 to Jaguar Cars Ltd’s company vehicles department, and its pre-delivery inspection was carried out in the service department at the Browns Lane factory.

The XJS was subsequently sold via Hollingdrake Jaguar in December 1997 to an owner who was based in Stockport. The service book shows that it was maintained by main dealers in the north-west of England through to 2012, when it was serviced by Royles Jaguar in Wilmslow at 19,910 miles. 

The Jaguar covered less than 1000 miles between then and 2016, when it was serviced by marque specialist Classic Motor Cars in Bridgnorth. More recently, it returned to CMC in February 2024 for a full service, since when it has been used only sparingly. 

The car sports a stylish quad-headlamp conversion, but the original headlamps have been retained and are included in the sale. The same goes for the original five-spoke wheels, which have been replaced by Jaguar’s distinctive ‘lattice’ alloys, and the factory jack is in the boot, wrapped in its leather case. 

Inside, the XJS still features its factory floor mats, but elsewhere it has some well-chosenmodern upgrades. A Jaguar Classic infotainment system has been fitted and provides sat-nav, a USB connection, DAB radio and Bluetooth phone pairing. Parking sensors have been installed and are activated via a discreet button next to the steering column, and a wooden gear knob has been fitted.

Being a 1995 car, this XJS also benefits from having outboard rear discs, makingmaintenance much easier than on the earlier cars, which had inboard brakes.

This superbly presented, low-mileage Convertible is now being offered for sale with a full set of service and maintenance books, while its combination of an ultra-smooth six-cylinder engine, luxurious interior and top-down style make it an extremely rewarding grand tourer.
